Embrace your inner geek!
Did you know today is National Embrace Your Geekiness Day? Yes, it really exists. And that can only mean one thing- geeky glasses! At Direct Sight we’ve got a huge range, from square retro frames to round Harry Potter-style glasses, so it’s time to take your pick and embrace your inner geek. And you won’t be alone; celebrities love the geeky look, such as presenter Alexa Chung with her kooky outfits and Anne Hathaway sporting a pair of quirky frames. The term ‘geek’ may have originally referred to lonely video-game addicts and computer nerds, but on the fashion scene, geeks are cool. The geek trend is one of our favourites because anyone can create an individual look. As pioneered by the likes of Scooby Doo’s Velma and Doctor Who, it can be worn by men and women and is also easy to recreate. 
We love the bargain pair of DS Collection A170 glasses with fully-rimmed tortoiseshell frame for some real geeky-chic. Try wearing these with some skinny jeans and braces for full-on homage to the trend, or with a feminine dress for a subtle quirky twist. Or if you want to splash out on a pair of designer frames, the Boss Orange 0418 glasses would capture the nerd trend perfectly. The Boss eyewear range is renowned for its innovative, yet classic pieces, and we now offer these frames for just £121.50. This statement eyewear features a thick acetate frame and round lens shape for an eye-catching look, available in four different colours. Try experimenting with the frames in tortoiseshell or black, and you can be the ultimate geek. Shop the whole retro glasses range here.
